“My sons aren’t dying for any foreign country. We have plenty of problems right here in America to focus on.” – Catherine Buschold
“Our military service members volunteer to defend the United States and its vital interests, their lives should not be put in jeopardy for other causes.” – Jerry Harben
“We have spent the lives of your young and our treasure being the world’s police force. We should only be actively involved when we are obligated by treaty. We should, however, use what influence we have to help the warring parties reach a peaceful resolution.” – Jennifer Rawson
“We need to focus on our country and get it back in alignment with the Constitution.” – Ken Kalies
“I choose the Israel conflict because, as Christians, we are to stand with Israel. Also, Hamas is a terrorist group.” – Cathy Blake
“There is no more Jew and Gentile. Only Christ and those not in Christ. The nation state of Israel is not special and does not deserve our tax dollars or military support any more than any other country (i.e., none). No more meddling in foreign wars until we’ve settled our own problems.“ – Logan Kendrick
“Hamas must be destroyed. They do not value human life at all. Iran is behind this, so it looks like the US, together with Israel and any other nation that would like to defeat terrorism, will have to get involved if there is to be peace in the region.” – Sonja Boles
“No more funding, supporting, or sending our personnel anywhere but our border. No more Vietnam conflicts ever!” – David Clark
“The US has enough problems to solve without sending our troops into another never-win war! It’s a huge money maker for the military-industrial complex. Everyone else loses.” – Susan Perry
“Other than protecting U.S. & Taiwanese waters from foreign invasion, we don’t need to be militarily involved in any conflict…” – Jason Kerr
“Until we can help ourselves, we’re in no position to meddle in conflicts outside of our failing nation.” – Brooke Walsh
“We are tied to Israel by our GOD. Those who bless Israel will be blessed by God.” – Chris Barden
“I answered Ukraine, but I feel we should help any country that is invaded. It would be nice if we could go back to being peace-keepers rather than financial caregivers.” – Annette LaSala
“George Washington’s advice about avoiding foreign entanglements is just as valid today as it was when he said it. The proper course for our country is to be friends with those who wish to be friends, but if an adversary smites us, we bring the hammer and then go home.” – Rick Mayforth
